My Hair is Bad – Even If We Get Married Someday

Itsuka Kekkon Shitemo, a track included on My Hair is Bad’s third album, mothers.

This one is also popular as a wedding song.

The lyrics are contrarian—“I love you, but I’ll never say words of love”—yet it’s a song overflowing with love that says, “As long as we can be together, we don’t need anything special or any big changes.” It’s a mutual-love song that reminds us of something obvious yet easy to forget: there’s nothing more important than simply being together.

Can I call it magic?Hirai Ken

Ken Hirai “May I Call It Magic?” MUSIC VIDEO (Short Ver.)

The moments when we feel love the most aren’t fancy dinners at upscale restaurants or expensive gifts, but the small, everyday things, aren’t they? Sung in Ken Hirai’s embracing voice, this warm and moving love song touches the heart as it portrays someone trying to express their love in every way they can.

If we’re always thinking we have to do something special to make the other person happy, both we and they end up worn out.

If we don’t forget to treat them with kindness and consideration, we might naturally end up doing things that make them happy.
